Shaun Murphy: What does it feel like to be a girl? Are you angry? Was that an inflammatory question?
Quinn Darby: I’d rather people ask questions instead of pointing and staring. When I used to look like a boy, I felt… different. The kids at school didn’t understand me, so they picked on me. I spent a lot of time alone. When my parents let me be me, I felt… like I didn’t have to pretend anymore. I felt free, like when you’re in a pool and you just let go and float.
Shaun Murphy: I’m not a very good swimmer. I don’t know what it feels like to be anyone but me.
Quinn Darby: Me, too.
